Campaign - The Standout by Laurel Osterkamp

Kindle Scout is a new Amazon program where readers get a say in which books get published. If my book is chosen I’ll receive, among other things, featured Amazon marketing. This would be a dream-come-true, because I am always trying to reach new readers, but doing so gets harder every day.

So to raise awareness of The Standout and my Kindle Scout campaign, I’m hosting this giveaway. Please click through and nominate The Standout! Nominating books is quick, free, and you won’t get SPAM. Plus, if it gets published by Kindle Press, in a few weeks you’ll get a free copy of The Standout! While you’re on Kindle Scout, you can read an excerpt of The Standout, and/or nominate other books too. But be sure to come back and enter the giveaway!

Thanks so much! And please, if you’re feeling REALLY generous, share this with other readers, friends, and family. I will be forever grateful!

About the Book:

First Robin gets the email with its simple demand: dump your fiancé or else. Then someone puts up the slanderous Rotten Robin Website that threatens to crush her chances to win The Standout, a ballet-themed, fashion reality show. Surrounded by backstabbing co-contestants and haunted by mysterious ghosts from her past, Robin can't trust anyone, including herself.

This new psychological thriller by Laurel Osterkamp, author of The Holdout and The Next Breath, is Black Swan meets Project Runway. Get ready for a breathtaking novel about love, betrayal, tall buildings, and finding the courage to jump.

Laurel Osterkamp becomes very attached to her characters. The Standout, The Holdout, The Next Breath, November Surprise, Blue State, and American Angst all feature the Bricker family, but these books can be read in any order. Laurel teaches English and Creative Writing in Minneapolis, where she tries to stay warm, hang out with her husband and two chatty children, and find the time to write. Her other novels are the award-winningFollowing My Toes and Starring in the Movie of My Life.
